Bought Skunk2 parts. Seemed nice at the time, but it was just money down the drain. I would have gone with a different brand and no polyurethane.

For me some how I manage to keep scraping my front bumper I've done it 3 times not so bad but it's just kills me when I hear it :(
It's because the springs are too soft... I bottom out my civic a few times on driveways and big bumps and dips....

probably those semi-heavy acceleration while the car was in the first 600 miles break-in period. The car is at 21xx miles and seems fine tho...

The way I see it I tried not to do more than necessary. Literally driving it off the lot with 7 miles on it had to take the highway to go home but you better get up to 60+ mph before some one is ramming your tail

I wasn't careful enough while I was taking the headunit out of my car and the screwdriver in my hand hit the screen and scratched it. Fortunately it's not noticeable during use unless you look hard for it. Also, I set the headunit on top of the shift knob while I was disconnecting the 19 connectors it has with wires that are too short to pull it out further, and it scratched up the leather on the knob.

Should have leased it instead and be able to get rid of it after 3 years
Why do you say that ? Not a fan of the car and what model did you get

Guys do not run the car too hard in the beginning! I regret not safely breaking the car.
What issues are you having I first went on the high with my car with 5000 miles or a little over on it
